Explicilty set request body field example as null, instead of "string" or "null" (original) (raw)

Related to this swagger-api/swagger-inflector#371 and these PRs I suppose:

• implements exampleSetFlag to flag deserialization of null example vs missing #3637
• process exampleSetFlag to flag deserialization of null example vs missing swagger-parser#1400

I'm using spring boot and I cannot set an example for a given field in a request body as explicitly null

For example:

    @Schema(description = "Some field")
    public String field

always ends up either as "string". I tried passing the defaultValue and nullable args to the annotation, but the best I could get is "null"

Actual:

{
  "field" : "string"
}

or

{
  "field" : "null"
}

Expected:

{
  "field" : null
}

How can I accomplish this?
